Well as i had yesterday of work i thought it was about time (as i had some free from the stick) to get started on it.
First of it needed a good wash.

Then went about fixing some of it's little faults which started with fitting a new lock set which was the easy part then a glove box/some wing mirrors (that need painting but were free of a GSI i stripped) and finaly the sunvisor as the mirror was broken.(dont know if this was broken before i looked in it of not lol)

All in all a good few hours work but it could do with a good pollish so will do that over the weekend if i get chance.
I did manage to get a pipercross panel filter (From chris sr cheers mate)fitted and then took it for a little spin as ive never had a sri before and have forgoten what a giggle a small block around little streets can be.
Keep you posted when i get a chance to work on it again.
This is going to make an ideal little runner to keep me no clains going and a giggle when i aint in the civic.

I know this sounds a bit cheeky as you know what i got it for but i may have to put it up for sale if there is enough interest.

I dont realy want to sell it but need the space as running out of it now and got the omega to keep me no claims going.

Pm me with any interest.

With thanks

Chris.

Ask Vaughanmc ... He is going to be making his car into a SRi rep anyway .. maby he will scrap the idea and just buy an original ... or if you put it up on ebay .. you would get a lot ..
